NOTE M:  LITIGATION
Other than the lawsuit discussed below, the Company is
not
a party to any pending legal proceeding which management believes to be material to the financial statements of the Company. The Company maintains liability insurance against risks arising out of the normal course of its business.
 
We are a defendant in a collective-action lawsuit which was re-filed on
December 9, 2016,
in the United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas. The plaintiffs, who are former drivers who worked for the Company during the period of
December 6, 2013,
through the date of the filing, allege violations under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Arkansas Minimum Wage Law. The plaintiffs, through their attorneys, have filed causes of action alleging “Failure to pay minimum wage during orientation, failure to pay minimum wage to team drivers after initial orientation, failure to pay minimum wage to solo-drivers after initial orientation, failure to pay for compensable travel time, Comdata card fees, unlawful deductions, and breach of contract.” The plaintiffs are seeking actual and liquidated damages to include court costs and legal fees. The lawsuit is currently under preliminary review. We cannot reasonably estimate, at this time, the possible loss or range of loss, if any, that
may
arise from this lawsuit. Management has determined that any losses under this claim will
not
be covered by existing insurance policies.
